TV Card software?
 

What are some good TV Tuner programs that can watch and record TV from a PVR-350 using the IVTV driver?

Try MythTV. It is probably the single most complete home entertainment package available on any operating system.

I'm looking for something other than MythTV, I didn't find it suitable for my desktop. It's more meant for a PVR style set top box I think. I want something to use on my computer not a TV set.

Look at Xawtv, Motv, TVTime or KDETV although I would skip the KDETV it just takes up too much % of processor when running.

Ok I tried them all and none of them work lol. I like Zapping though, but it says:

Cannot start capturing: tveng1.c:map_xbuffers:2617: ioctl VIDIOCGMBUF failed: 22, Invalid argument

When I try to search for channels. Does it work with the PVR 350? If so, what am I doing wrong?

I can't see why any of them would not work with that card what command are you using to start the program(s). Also have you installled scantv and tried to use it to scan for the channels?

When I run scan TV, it keeps saying:

scanning channel list us-bcast...
2 ( 55.25 MHz): no station
3 ( 61.25 MHz): no station
4 ( 67.25 MHz): no station
5 ( 77.25 MHz): no station
6 ( 83.25 MHz): no station
7 (175.25 MHz): no station
8 (181.25 MHz): no station
9 (187.25 MHz): no station

etc. It doesn't find any stations. I think I'm on us-bcast, that's antenna right? Also, when I run KPlayer and play /dev/video0, channel 4 comes in, so I know its working.

The us-bcast would be an antenna, is that how you are setup with only an antenna coming into the back of the card. I am asking this because most Cable/Sat boxes have the option to choose channel 3 or 4 for the output and if you are only getting the 4 then try changing the channel on the receiver (Cable/Sat box up/down channel not the set one with the jumper) and see if you get the others.
